Beula Sayers (1913 - 1982)

The maternal relationship between Beula Sayers and her son John R Spence is confirmed by the direct inheritance path of autosomal DNA down to their DNA tested descendant SMS.

The segmental (via DNA segment triangulation) and total DNA shared between SMS and other confirmed descendants of Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs is consistent with the expected ranges for their respective relationships. Since SMS descends from Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs through Beula Sayers and her son John R Spence, the presence of significant shared DNA between SMS and other known descendants of Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs validates the generational links along this maternal line.

This supports the conclusion that DNA was passed from MRCA couple Daniel Wilson/Sarah Ann Combs through Beula Sayers to John R Spence, and ultimately to SMS, confirming this direct ancestral connection through multiple generations.
